This is a beautiful but long stretch,  along the Roman road,  through the mountains and then, along quiet country roads to San Pedro.  You need food, water,  warm clothes for the morning, and sunscreen for the afternoon. There are rivers to cross.

I’m not sure if it was the healing hands of Tomás,  the ‘Divine Cleaner ‘,  ‘El Divino Sanador’ or a good night’s sleep,  but I was full of energy and flew along.

Tomás told me that I would get, not what I wanted,  but what I most needed.  This must be it!

I stayed with Mari Carmen at the VII Carreras Restaurant.  Mari Carmen owns all the alberges, so there is little choice. However,  she was very friendly and I had an excellent night.
